title: Stabilisation of carbon-supported palladium nanoparticles through the formation of an alloy with gold: application to the Sonogashira reaction.
abstract: Oh my Gold! Gold atoms stabilise catalytically active palladium nanoparticles when engaged in an alloy heterogenised on carbon. The increased durability makes the Pd-Au/C catalyst more recyclable than the gold-free Pd/C catalyst for the Sonogashira reaction.
